Spoon is a book about a little spoon who is feeling down about himself. He sees all the other utensils having fun and he wishes he could have as much fun as they do. Spoon's mother takes him around to see all the other utensils and sees what exactly makes them all special. What spoon doesn't realize is that all the other utensils are saying the same things about Spoon. It takes the help of his mother to make Spoon realize how lucky he is and how much fun he gets to have.

This book is a wonderful book for any age including older students. This book has a message that we all should be celebrating what makes us special instead of comparing ourselves to others. This is a lesson that all students should learn and this book can be read to them to remind them that we should all be happy with what we have. We are all unique and it is something to celebrate.
